Issue With 3Rd Store Multifront

Hi. We have 2 stores with multifront. We expanded it to a 3rd one.

3rd one will have as Shared, part of the products from store 1.

All well except when we try to import products saying which products to show per store (standard cs-cart import) almost nothing happens to 3rd store. Products do not show with their full details (descriptions, options, combinations,etc)

In first store all are fine.

We go to All Stores and see that their structure is not like

Store name 1

---- Category 1 of 1st store

etc

Store name 2

---- Category 1 of 2nd store

etc

Store name 3

---- Category 1 of 3rd store

etc

But...

Category 1 of 1st store

Category 1 of 2nd store

Category 1 of 3rd store

Perhaps this is the issue? or not? If so is there any way to rebuild that index without causing issues with product id's , etc?

Or any other idea? The thing is that even with that structure stores 1 and 2 work fine and update fine.

I am afraid it is not possible to update shared products via CSV import in current CS-Cart version. You can update most of the data (that is visible in both storefront), but it is not possible to update the shared fields.

Hi. Thank you for this answer but we do not want to import any products or update only the ones in 3rd store.

We just want to share X products from Store 1 to Store 2 with ALL their data (options, combinations, photos, descriptions, etc)

Then we want to apply an X% discount on all products catalogue in the 3rd store ONLY. The 3rd store is a B2B store so clients will have to login and see prices and be able to buy.

That is all. We don't want to change any particular data per product. 3rd store can have same categories as 1st store, etc.

So the CSV will be used only to "tell" to both stores which products will be shared from 1st to 3rd.

What is the solution?
